Been reading this blog for years? Do you think you know me? Do you really know me? Can I really describe myself in just five words? I'll share some takeaways for you, too. Persistent There was a time in my running "career" that I ran quite a few halfs at basically the same finish time. … Continue reading Chocolaterunsjudy in 5 words
February at its best: 2/1 – 7 WRD
There was nothing remarkable about this week -- except for the fact that my mom got her first vaccine. Otherwise, pretty much same old, same old. February is doing what February does best: cold, gray, and snowy. Although I'd still say despite that we're "enjoying" a somewhat mild Winter.' I have to admit I don't … Continue reading February at its best: 2/1 – 7 WRD
Last year in the 50s: Tea/coffee Date February 2021
Thanks, Coco and Deborah, for inviting me and all the other bloggers to get together with the warm beverage of our choice and get caught up in what's going on in our worlds. If we were enjoying tea/coffee . . .I'd tell you the last couple of years have changed my relationship with running. I don't know … Continue reading Last year in the 50s: Tea/coffee Date February 2021
The Art of Resting & Relaxing: January 2021
Remember my word for 2021? If you don't, it's clear and you can read about it here. The last few years I used song lyrics each month that used my word -- or maybe just the feeling I wanted to convey. In 2021 I'm just using quotes. I like to do something like this because … Continue reading The Art of Resting & Relaxing: January 2021
Commencement: 1/25 -31 WRD
As in let the runs commence. A little, anyway. For much of January we had decent Winter running. Not too cold (mostly), not to snowy (mostly). Unfortunately I also wasn't feeling up to running. Naturally now that I am, we've already had snow & bitter cold & a Nor'Easter maybe on the way -- my … Continue reading Commencement: 1/25 -31 WRD
I Killed My Carrots!: Runfessions January 2021
Well, there weren't many running miles in January, and I suppose I should come up with some clever headings for my runfessions, but we'll just call them that anyway. My brain is fried from all the work I've been doing the last few weeks! You might notice a common theme in most of these runfessions … Continue reading I Killed My Carrots!: Runfessions January 2021
6 Favorites of 2020
2020 started with the death of my father, and ended (well, on Halloween) with death of Lola. There was a lot of loss for many dear friends in 2020, too. As hard as 2020 was, it definitely wasn't all bad and I try to always look for the silver linings. My rainbow hunt Remember my … Continue reading 6 Favorites of 2020
A week of creativity: 1/18 – 24 WRD
Even though I felt even better most of this week, there were a few days I didn't. Very annoying. Even more annoying? I managed to tweak something in my dominant arm shoulder, not once, but twice! After a lot of SMR (self myofascial release), both times, the pain quickly went away -- although it took … Continue reading A week of creativity: 1/18 – 24 WRD
Welcome to Go with Yin Yoga
Today I am unveiling my new Website and Blog for Yoga here. It is very much a work in progress, so I appreciate your gentle, constructive criticism. At the moment it's also a personal site, so there are some things I can't change -- and then there are some things I can change, but I … Continue reading Welcome to Go with Yin Yoga
Thoughts on Running through a Pandemic
Back in August, I wrote about the good things in a Pandemic (you can read that post here). It's easy to find bad things, but what you focus on grows, so why not focus on the good stuff? The topic today is what did I learn about myself in the Pandemic, but I sort of … Continue reading Thoughts on Running through a Pandemic
